Management fable: good barrel and broken barrel

A water bearer has two buckets, one is cracked and the other is intact. After each long-distance transportation, the intact bucket can always send a full bucket of water from the stream to the owner's home, while the cracked bucket reaches the owner's home, leaving only half a bucket.

In the past two years, the water bearer has to carry a bucket and a half of water to his master's house every day. Of course, a good bucket is proud of being able to fill the whole bucket with water. Where's the broken bucket? It is ashamed of its own shortcomings and sad that it can only bear half the responsibility.

After two years of failure, the broken bucket finally couldn't help but say to the water bearer by the stream, "I am ashamed and must apologize to you." "Why?" The bearer asked, "Why are you ashamed?" "In the past two years, because my side has been leaking all the way, I can only send half a bucket of water to your host family. My defect made you do all the work, but only received half the effect. " Broken barrel said. The bearer felt sorry for the broken bucket. He said affectionately, "on our way back to our host's house, I want you to pay attention to the blooming flowers on the roadside."

Sure enough, when they walked on the hillside, the broken bucket lit up at the moment, and they saw colorful flowers. They were bathed in the warm sunshine by the roadside, which made them happy a lot! However, at the end of the path, it felt uncomfortable again, because it missed half of the water on the road! The broken bucket apologized to the bearer again. The water bearer said softly, "Have you noticed that there are only flowers on your path, but there are no flowers on the good bucket?" I know you have defects, so I make good use of them and plant flowers on your roadside. Whenever I go to fetch water by the stream, you water the flowers for me all the way! These beautiful flowers decorated the host's dining table for two years. If you weren't like this, there wouldn't be such beautiful flowers on the master's desk! "

Philosophy of story

Everyone has shortcomings, it depends on how you use them. This farmer is really good. He is good at taking advantage of the shortcomings of broken barrels. Just like a man doing things, he can actually take advantage of his shortcomings. When a shortcoming can be used, you don't think it is a shortcoming, so when people are together, they can't just look at the advantages of others, care about their shortcomings, and should tolerate their shortcomings.

When using talents, leaders should not only pay attention to their strengths, but also turn "short" into "long".

Half a pot of water-responsibility is responsibility.

A ship was unfortunately wrecked in the rough sea. The first mate jumped into the lifeboat with nine surviving sailors and drifted aimlessly at sea. 10 days have passed, and everyone still can't see any hope of being rescued. The first mate is guarding the last half pot of water, and nine people are not allowed to touch it-there is hope for survival with water, and it is difficult for everyone to persist without water. The first mate is the only person in the lifeboat with a gun. He pointed a gun at the nine sailors who might rush to grab water at any time and asked them to curse and roar at themselves.

Among the nine people, the most fierce one is a bald guy. He narrowed his eyes into a crack, stared menacingly at the first mate and laughed at him in a hoarse voice: "Why don't you give up?" You can't hold on! "Say that finish, he jumped up and reached for the pot. The first mate rudely pointed a gun at his chest. The bald man sighed and sat down obediently.

In order to protect this half basin of fresh water that sustains the hope of life, the first mate has not slept for two days and nights. He told himself that he must hold on, otherwise the bald man will push all the victims to the abyss of death with reckless actions. However, due to thirst and drowsiness, he couldn't hold on any longer. His grip on the gun became softer and softer ... In desperation, he actually gave the gun to the nearest bald man and said intermittently, "Please ... take my place." Then he fell face down into the cabin.

More than ten hours passed, and at dawn, the first mate woke up. He heard a hoarse voice in his ear saying, "Come, have a drink."

-Bald!

The bald man held a lighted kettle in one hand, while the other hand held a gun firmly and aimed at eight other crazier sailors. Seeing the first mate's puzzled face, the bald man said awkwardly, "You said, let me replace you, right?"

A round of Asahi finally sent a rescue boat.

Philosophy of story

Responsibility is the most important factor to maintain a team. Many bosses feel that employees have no sense of responsibility for the company. However, the reason for all these difficulties is that the boss has not really given the employees real responsibility. Only responsible employees can consider the overall situation, and may even have an amazing sense of responsibility.

Three mice

Three mice went to steal oil and drink together. They found an oil bottle, but the bottle mouth was too high to reach. Three mice discussed, one stepped on the other's shoulder and the pyramid took turns drinking water. When the last mouse just climbed onto the shoulders of the other two mice, for some reason, the oil bottle fell, which alarmed people and all three mice ran away. Back in the rat's nest, they had a meeting to discuss the reasons for their failure.

The first mouse said that I didn't drink oil and knocked over the oil bottle because I felt the second mouse shaking.

The second mouse said, I did shake, because the bottom mouse also had a fight.

The third mouse said, yes, I think I heard a cat. I was shaking.

So the three mice laughed, as if it were not our responsibility.

Presumably most people can understand the meaning of this story, but in the workplace, around us, such "rats" can be seen everywhere. For example, at the quarterly performance appraisal meeting of an enterprise, marketing manager A said: The sales are not very good recently, and we have some responsibilities, but the main responsibility is not ours. Our competitors have introduced new products, which are better than ours. Therefore, it is very difficult for us to do it, and the R&D department should seriously summarize it.

B, manager of R&D department, said: We haven't launched many new products recently, but we also have difficulties. Our budget is too small, even a pitiful budget has been cut by the financial department. How to develop new products without money?

C, manager of the finance department, said: I did cut your budget, but you know, the cost of the company has been rising, and of course we don't have much money to invest in the R&D department.

D, manager of purchasing department, said: Our purchasing cost has increased by 10%. Do you know why? An explosion occurred in a mine producing chromium in Russia, which led to an increase in the price of stainless steel.

At this time, the three ABC managers said in unison: Oh, I see. In this case, all of us don't have much responsibility, hahahaha.

F, the human resources manager, said: In this case, I can only inspect Russian mines.

Even in our enterprises, similar situations always seem to happen, but bosses and supervisors always seem to be unable to find the crux of the problem, which can only be attributed to the common fault of China people: when something happens, everyone first thinks of shirking responsibility instead of thinking about how to solve the problem.

At work, all departments should not take the so-called objective factors as the reason, and everyone should share the responsibility. The solution to many problems will not be "from ancient times to Huashan", and every department must find a solution to a certain extent. This is the problem of subjective attitude.

Prevarication is only a superficial phenomenon. The main problem is quality. 1, no team spirit; 2. No sense of responsibility; 3. No courage to face mistakes; 4, can not be selfish; 5. Blame everything on the outside; 6. I don't know if I'm hungry when I'm full. Everything will be fine if you are full. ......
